Wow, PAS enriches a lot of lives, mine included, it’s hardly fair it should be impoverishing you, Russell! I think an annual koha would be entirely the right thing. Pick a date for the next one. I doubt I’m the only one who’s feeling a bit embarrassed you’ve been footing the bill for so long!

Arohanui to you and all the other folk who make this such an awesome place.

Could a similar system work for TVNZ 7 Media 7 , court report, Back benchers etc. ?I would be happy to donate to prolong the life such TV . BBC World Service radio in Auckland has a successful model of funding from private sponsors. Good Luck Russell.

I think all PA readers are avid coffee snobs and would like a collectable mug each year.

There's got to be someone on here who's sufficiently artistic that they could come up with a novel, PAS-relevant mug design every year. Probably several someones. Hell, why not just go down the full-on merch route using one of the many websites devoted to such things? Pretty minimal time overhead to get it setup, and an on-going revenue stream that would support the functioning of PAS.
